Beer sales regulations change Tuesday

Jarrett Dieterle, director of commercial freedom policy for the R Street Institute, which runs the alcohol policy website DrinksReform.org, told Watchdog that flexible licensing schemes are important for localities and states to adopt.

“In general, states and localities should consider ways to increase the flexibility of alcohol licensing options,” Dieterle said. “Creating more flexibility and less rigidity in licensing schemes would allow different types of establishments to adopt models that work for them and their communities.”
